Gogglebox star Ken Harwood has died aged 77 following a short illness.

The much loved pensioner will be remembered in a heartfelt tribute during tonight's episode.

It read: 'Ken will be dearly missed by his wife Anne, sons Simon and Ross, daughter-in-law, Elle, grandchildren Freya and Tristram, and all who knew him.

'There will be a tribute to Ken at the end of 's episode on Gogglebox tonight.'

Ken is a former postmaster and appeared in the Channel 4 show for five series alongside his beloved wife Anne, whom he was married to for 55 years.

They were loved by fans on the programme from series 15 to 19 during 2020 and 2022.

According to The Sun, Ken, from County Durham, passed away surrounded by his family last week.  

After retiring as a postmaster after 30 years, Ken went on to be a local councillor until 2013.  

Ken melted the nation's hearts when he presented his wife with a large bouquet of flowers during their debut appearance on Gogglebox. 

It featured 50 roses – one for every year they've been married. 

Anne quipped: 'You’ve put me to shame now with a card and roses, and I got you nothing.

'But you have me and that’s all you need.'
